David Brownlow Traywick, 50, is charged with trafficking of methamphetamine and conspiracy to traffic methamphetamine. He is being held in the Union County, North Carolina, jail in lieu of $500,000 bond.

According to WCNC, a Charlotte-based NBC affiliate, Traywick was arrested along with his wife and two other people after deputies searched his home. Traywick was also arrested last September and charged with cooking meth in a makeshift lab near his home.

Grammy-winner Travis, whose given name is Randy Bruce Traywick, has been hospitalized in Texas since July 7, when he was admitted with what doctors believed was congestive heart failure. Doctors have since found scarring on his heart.

While in the hospital, Travis suffered a stroke and had subsequent brain surgery to reduce pressure buildup caused by the stroke.

His condition has improved, doctors said Tuesday, but his recovery from the stroke will take months.
